BEFORE YOU START
FILLING THE SMARTDISPENSE RESERVOIR

gel automatic dishwashing detergent.
• Set the door at a comfortable angle to fill the dispenser (or all
the way open if you prefer).
• Aim the detergent bottle at the opening in the door and begin
to fill.
• The dispenser will hold 45 fluid ounces of liquid dishwasher
detergent (standard size bottle).
• A full dispenser will last approximately 2 months.
STOP
• Use ONLY the following liquid (or gel) automatic
dishwasher detergents in your SmartDispenser:

Using other detergents than those listed above can result
in degraded wash performance and/or issues with the
performance of the SmartDispense system.

provided with the dishwasher to determine the hardness of
water in your home.
• The default water hardness setting programmed into the
dishwasher is “hard”. Use the water hardness test strip
provided with your dishwasher and follow the instructions on
page 11 in the Owner’s Manual to calibrate your dishwasher
for the water conditions in your home.
